JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) hopes that the deputy chairman chair left by Lili Pintauli Siregar can be filled soon. Moreover, the presidential letter (surpres) has been handed over to the DPR by the Palace.

"Hopefully the DPR can immediately determine the replacement of Mrs. LPS (Lili Pintauli Siregar)," said KPK Deputy Chair Nurul Ghufron to reporters, Tuesday, September 20.

Ghufron said that his party appreciated the submission of the presidential decree from the Palace to the DPR. He hopes that whoever is proposed can make the performance of the anti-corruption commission maximized later.

"So that the KPK will soon have complete completeness of five people back," said Ghufron.

President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) has submitted the name of Lili's replacement to the DPR and has been received. This submission was submitted since a week ago.

"It has been submitted to the DPR for a presidential decree," said Minister of State Secretary (Mensesneg) Pratikno at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Central Jakarta, Monday, September 19.

As previously reported, Lili resigned from her position after allegedly violating ethics. He is said to have received Mandalika's MotoGP accommodation and tickets from PT Pertamina (Persero).

However, this allegation has not been proven because Lili quickly resigned and was approved by President Jokowi. The ethics trial held by the KPK Supervisory Board was stopped because Lili was no longer an employee of the anti-corruption commission.
